Hamilton full of emotion after Africa trip: 'Feeling fully transformed'
Lewis Hamilton travelled through parts of Africa for a two weeks during the summer break. The Brit revealed on Instagram that he has changed a lot as a person and that he cannot wait to return.
While other drivers are lying in the pool or at the beach during the four-week summer break, Hamilton chose to visit countries such as Namibia, Rwanda and Kenya. On Instagram, the seven-time world champion shares photos and videos of his trip and also talks about his feelings.
"These past two weeks have been some of the best days of my entire life. I’m not the same man I was before this trip, all the beauty, love, and peacefulness I experienced has me feeling fully transformed. No amount of photos could capture how I’m feeling now and what I’m trying to say. Just know, where words fall short emotions run deep", Hamilton wrote in his message.
Hamilton feels deeply connected
"I connected with my roots and my history and I feel my ancestors with me now stronger than I ever have before. Namibia, Rwanda, Kenya and Tanzania thank you. To the people here, the nature and the wildlife thank you. We were welcomed to each beautiful place we visited. We were treated like family. To my brothers who joined me on this journey, thank you. I know we’ll be talking about this forever", ends the Mercedes driver.
On Twitter, the Brit said he can't wait to return, but for now Hamilton will have to focus on the second half of the season, with the Belgian Grand Prix coming up next week. The race in Spa-Francorchamps will mark the start of the first triple header of the season.
His Dad is from the Caribbean, I think he may have got this a bit wrong.
if he's fully transformed, can we talk about a"she" because that would be something I would admire. he than would finally puts his inclusion words into action!! btw a friend of me was on a 3 weeks vacation in Kenya. bonded even more I guess... he wasn't reborn, only not do tired anymore. just curious, the mountain Lewis is standing on, is that Ben Nevis???
If he’s still just as entitled and pretentious, where’s the transformation?
He has been bitten there. Zombified. Ready to hang on to Max's right rear by the Scruff of his teeth. Kicking up dust in Charl's visor.
He should have done that privately. All he does is do add to the felling that he is not a genuine person.
Lewis has always been fake person with it all he make up for lost time when he went hiding last year lol
What is he talking about. A trip to Africa and all of a sudden he's back at his roots. So much entitlement is unbelievable. That roots was never his to begin with. It's like me claiming I'm German just because my great grandfather was from Germany.
Lewis love to talk a load of bull to make him look good funny he dont go see were his mum roots are
Namibia, Rwanda, Kenya and Tanzania are well know for their peacefulness. Lewis being able to reconnect in only 2 weeks shows his true speed, of and on the track. next time he will visit Africa he will shine in a Lionskin outfit with a tooth from a lion through his nose and purple sunglasses by Gucci. wonderful, can't wait
In one the papers lewis made a new frieand it was a goat in his arms lol
Can the racing resume already....rehashed articles designed to trigger the usual suspects...tiresome...and the triggered never disappoint ...
Looking for news... not insulting or attacking anyone which the bulk of this thread will eventually become....
I bet every time he saw a majestic, powerful and noble lion he thought of Max. And after this humbling experience, back onto his private jet and over to Milan for some fashion accessories before joining the team again. Angela takes great photos.
Yet another “transformation” for Lewis. And of course he must tell everyone about it. ?
Travelling the world is waste of time and hard earned money. Truth lies within, one just needs to find a right way to unlock it.
Truth lies within, that may be true for some, but that journey doesn't happen in a vacuum. You read to garner knowledge, you test and theorize, no person is an island mate. To find the truth within you need to find the truth through knowledge and experience. Some travel, neither is exclusive. Truth is imparted in many ways mate , don't monopolize the process.
Any word on the vial racism Michael Masi received from Hamilton fans? Your been unusually quiet about the subject given you’re so quick to point the finger !!! turns out it was Lewis Hamilton fans and Mercedes fans issued racist death threats to Masi ! There’s articles so feel free to see the proof …… mate
Simply put, you said Austria was a lie, as theres no proof. Then stop making long winded posts with lies,as you can't provide proof. Ah got yea.
Ah got yea ! No 5 page essay response ! You know it true you hypocrite .
You are clearly confused about what racism is. Abusing someone making a quite astounding error, whilst wrong, is not racism.
You are the worst on here for pushing the race agenda!.it’s your way of vilifying Verstappen as Hamilton can’t beat him . Or your racist yourself . I was simply highlighting that Masi was also a victim of filthy racist abuse ! I’m sure if you look it up ( google Michael Masi racist abuse ) you can read the articles yourself . What surprised me was Lewis Hamilton hasn’t said anything about it or condemning it! Neither have his fans ! Neither have you ! See what I mean ? Given your one of his fans I knew you would deny knowledge of it .
I was wondering , since you set a precedent with claims of abuse and racism. I mean you deny any issues happened a Austria ??, only some staged nonsense right. Can you sho evidence of all these death threats and racist abuse you speak off , any police reports made so that I can comment on please ,since you're so passionate about proof vs false claims to just get pity or PR. Thanks mate await You're response. Ps. All abuse is wrong like you said I am always advocating that, you on the other hand, well proof first righ?
Lets agree to disagree. Travelling broadens your perspective; you meet new cultures, make new friends, etc.
Wonder how it made the poor feel he visited! Like animals in a zoo no doubt !
Blah, blah. Who cares? Classic Lewis stuff. FInding his roots... He will return to a teammate who continues to outperform him and a level of driving in Max that he cannot compete with.
Hungarian GP was my favorite, Hammer shined over orange smoke :P
?. Orange ? finished 1st (10 seconds ahead) from 10th with a spin. Hammer only shined due to legendary Ferrari strategists.
